Inset 6 I'll suggest as Bridlington - I don't think it is, but a larger version may help!

I really should have gone with my first thought, but the station sign put me off as there wasn't enough words in it!
Barrow-in-Furness?

Inset 6: Semaphore signals at Barrow in Furness [ rincew1nd] (click/tap for a larger version) This still leaves the main image and insets five and eleven.

It's definitely a Korean train based on the words, so Seoul Subway?

Well it's a Lada Niva and the window sticker reference Attiki which I think is in Athens, Greece? We would have been happy with just the car being identified, so that’s plenty close enough. Inset 11: Chalki Island, Greece in June 2013 - "Niva" made its way from Russia to the small Greek island [ Dmitri ] wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=36.223057&lon=27.608105&z=20&m=b(click for a larger version)
